Description: Let's face it. Just saying I Love You is getting a tad overplayed. So I looked up a bunch of love quotes, from sweet to sad to funny, and now I challenge YOU to make up stories based on them.

I don't care if they're drabbles or oneshots, just write 'em! And then drop me an email so I can see it! I wanna see some spreading love! hehehe

Here are some quotes I found, but feel free to add your own (minimum of 10 to be written!):

“RAWR! It means ‘I love you’ in dinosaur!”

“Never fall for someone unless they’re willing to catch you.”

“I’m a lover, not a fighter. But I’ll fight for what I love.”

“I love you like a fat kid loves cake!”

“Our love is like a song. You can’t forget it!”

“I’m jealous of every girl that’s ever hugged him, because for that one short second, she held my whole entire world.”

“If I wanted to scream my love for you to the world, I’d only have to whisper it in your ear, because you are my world.”

“Roses are red. Violets are blue. I never knew love until I knew you.”

“People build up walls, not to keep people out, but to see who really cares enough to break them down.”

“Sticks and stones may break your bones. But only love can break your heart.”

“Let’s be nothing, you and me, because I heard it lasts forever.”

“I dropped a tear in the ocean. The day you find it will be the day I stop missing you.”

“I’ve been told to stop following you, but my feet don’t have ears to hear with.”

“You asked me to give you the world. I did so by giving you a mirror.”

“You know you’re in love when you don’t want to sleep, because reality has finally become better than your dreams.”

“I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox.”

“It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.”

“Just because someone doesn’t love you in the way you want them to, doesn’t mean that they don’t love you with all they’ve got.”

“We love because it’s the only true adventure.”

“It’s been said that you only truly fall in love once, but I don’t believe it. Every time I see you, I fall in love all over again.”

“Before I met you I never knew what it was like; to look at someone and smile for no reason.”

“True love does not come by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.”

“Every time I hear your voice, I hear another reason to keep you forever.”

Description: It is true, without us women men would be nothing.
Rules:
You can use any type of character (original, reader-insert, ect.)
It can be as long as you want, so long as it is over 100 words
The character has to be believable, with imperfections, and someone everyone can relate to (meaning: NO MARY-SUES)
The story has to be about a woman and her man, you think of a problem, and the wife points her hubby in the right direction (make it funny, or fluffy, or any way you want be creative!)
They can have kids, if you want them to or not, or they could be new parents
Last Rule: HAVE FUN!!! (and make sure you write the challenge in your summary)
Also, the characters I had selected those are only my favorites you can do others if you would like to.

Other Rules:
1. Only Reader insert
2. Any genre, story type, rating, etc.
3. The categories I listed are what I would like but you can choose any category you want. (COUGHKatekyoHitmanReborn!COUGH) Er hem. ^^;
4. No yaoi or yuri
5. Any interpretation of the chapters
6. Any number of words

Description: This snow is getting on my nerves. So what better to do than issue a challenge about Summer?! Hokay, here's how it goes: you must pick at least one prompt from each category and write a drabble or a one-shot about each. Or you can do every prompt if you want. That'd be great if you did. Anyway, they don't all have to be about the same character and there's no minium of words needed, nor is there a maximum. Any character from any fandom is also welcome. The above fandoms are just ones that I'm familiar with. Feel free to do whatever with the prompt; you can change some words around or put it into a phrase, as long as the word is there. It can be used metaphorically or literally and the word doesn't have to be mentioned in the chapter. As long as the drabble/one-shot/chapter goes along with the meaning of the prompt, then it's completely legit. Get cracking!

Conversation
Hey, you
Hi/Hello/Hey/etc.
What's up?/How's it going?/How are you?/etc.
I love you
Your mom(./!/?/?!)
I like you
I hate you
You're weird
Thank you
You're welcome
Time for...
Please
Goodbye

Description: 100 Topics for Trauma Center, but hey, if you don't know TC that well (myself being the only person to write for it so far), write it for the Megane characters of anime like Ootori Kyouya (Ouran High School Host Club), Kishitani Shinra (Durarara!!), Verde, Gokudera (he does have glasses) or Aoba Koyo (Katekyo Hitman Reborn!), Auron (FFX) and Nooj (FFX-2) count. And Eyepatches I suppose (like Gippal of FFX-2)

Rules:
For the love of all things good, no yaoi/yuri. Implied is fine I suppose, but subtle.

TC or Megane characters are what I want, but if you can't do that... I suppose that's fine.

Description: Just like the title indicates, this is a challenge of creating drabble.ficlets/one-shots or whatever in a collection using Homer Simpson quotes as the main focus. Just be creative with Homer's wonderful words and convert them into something funny, hot, sweet, sad... Whatever you may feel like~

You can add the quotes at the beginning of drabbles, use them in as dialogue, put them at the end or even write half at the beginning, half at the end... Just make sure the quotes are noticeable to those reading.

Okay, just so you know:
-Any genre is allowed. Lemons, Angst, Crack, whatever!
-Word limit; drabble length to however long you think is necessary for the quote
-Can use multiple anime to write for
-ONE quote per chapter, it's a lot easier that way
-Reader Insert is seemingly the most likable to go for
-Amount of chapters, can be however many you want from 10-50 or whatever you feel is needed
-Mention in summary that it's for this challenge so that way I know

Some Quotes I believe can have ideas created from: All said by Homer of course~

-"You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is 'never try'."
-"Safety? But sir! If truth be known, I actually caused more accidents around here than any other employee, including a few doozies no one ever found out about."
-"Trying is the first step towards failure."
-"What's the point of going out, we're just going to end up back here anyway?"
-"Yes, honey...Just squeeze your rage up into a bitter little ball and release it at an appropriate time, like that day I hit the referee with the whiskey bottle."
-"OK, son. Just remember to have fun out there today, and if you lose, I'LL KILL YOU!"
-"Kids, kids. As far as Daddy's concerned, you're both potential murderers."
-"They have the Internet on computers, now?"
-"When I look at the smiles on all the children's faces...I just know they're about to jab me with something."
-"Son, this is the only time I'm ever gonna say this. It is not okay to lose."
-"Well you know boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like women. You just have to read the manual and press the right button."
-"All right, let's not panic. I'll make the money by selling one of my livers. I can get by with one."
-"Marge, you being a cop makes you the man! Which makes me the woman - and I have no interest in that, besides occasionally wearing the underwear, which as we discussed, is strictly a comfort thing."
-"Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless."
-"Getting out of jury duty is easy. The trick is to say you're prejudiced against all races."
-"Here's to alcohol: the source of, and answer to, all of life's problems."
-"Now Bart, since you broke Grandpa's teeth, he gets to break yours."
-"Sometimes the only way you can feel good about yourself is by making someone else look bad. And I'm tired of making other people feel good about themselves!"
-"I want to share something with you: The three little sentences that will get you through life. Number 1: Cover for me. Number 2: Oh, good idea, Boss! Number 3: It was like that when I got here."
-"Don't you ever, EVER talk that way about television."
-"No matter how good you are at something, there's always about a million people better than you."
-"Marge, there's an empty spot I've always had inside me. I tried to fill it with family, religion, community service, but those were dead ends! I think this chair is the answer."
-"I'm not a bad guy! I work hard, and I love my kids. So why should I spend half my Sunday hearing about how I'm going to Hell?"
-"When it comes to compliments, women are ravenous blood-sucking monsters always want'n more... more... MORE! And if you give it to them, you'll get plenty back in return."
-"Marge, I'm going to miss you so much. And it's not just the sex. It's also the food preparation."
-"I've always wondered if there was a god. And now I know there is -- and it's me."
-"You can't keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once, and move on."
-"English - Who needs that? I'm never going to England!"
-"I have feelings too - like ''My stomach hurts'' or ''I'm going crazy!"
-"The strong must protect the sweet"
-"D'oh!!!"
-"I'm in a place where I don't know where I am!"
-"Remember as far as anyone knows, we're a nice normal family."
-"Don't let Krusty's death get you down, boy. People die all the time, just like that. Why, you could wake up dead tomorrow! Well, good night."
-"Don't mess with the dead, boy, they have eerie powers."
-"Relax. What is mind? No matter. What is matter? Never mind!"
-"If they think I'm going to stop at that stop sign, they're sadly mistaken!"
-"No, no, no, Lisa. If adults don't like their jobs, they don't go on strike. They just go in every day and do it really half-assed."
-"Don't eat me. I have a wife and kids. Eat them."

--I'd love you all forever if you do at least some for Durarara, KHR, Fairy Tail, Ouran, D.Gray Man, Bleach and hell, even Naruto~ Though if you really want to, do some for any anime you like, I'm just saying that I love these anime a little too much. Hehe. =3

Have fun, I hope to see people responding to this challenge whenever they can~!

Description: Let's face it, the zombie apocalypse is inevitable. The dead shall rise, whether hell is full or the government had found a way to make a biological weapon which eventually goes wrong, or a meteor will strike the Earth and with it bring some kind of alien virus or just because nature finally decides it's has had enough of us.

But, let's get to the point of this challenge. You are to pick whatever fandom you like and let the zombie apocalypse happen to it! Whether the zombies are shambling or track stars or some mixture of both, either way we're going assume that their bite will turn you, and a shot to the head will kill them.

So, basically that is it. You can use OCs, or make it a Reader-insert, or just focus on the canon characters. You can make this funny or horrific or add a little romance in it, or have all of that in it. You pretty much have free reign to decide many things like how the zombie apocalypse happen, what kind of undead there'll be, what will the characters do in order to survive, what they'll face and if there's a happy ending, or if there's a twist and so on.

Description: It's around that time of the year, during the season of Halloween where the monster come out and play, causing trouble and scaring the young and the old. It's also when the humans roam at night with glee as they dress up in their costumes, playing tricks and getting treats. And they're blissfully unaware of all the horrors that walk among them that very night.

These 205 songs will help you get into the mood and/or can be used as a themes for your drabbles (or a series of one-shots or a booklet of one-shots, or even ficlets). And when I mean themes...you could just take the title of the songs and use it as the prompt OR you can look up the lyrics and write a story base on them. If neither of those interest you, you can always do song-fics if you like!

You also don't have to do all of them, so you are free to choose whatever songs you want to use from this list.

So if you only want to pick five (or 6, 10, 15, 20, etc.) songs and use them as prompts then go ahead. If you want to do that and also write five (or 6, 10, 15, 20, etc.) song-fics too or stories base on the lyrics. Then also go ahead too. You pretty much can do anything with this. There's a lot to pick from because I wanted to make sure there's a little bit of everything so everyone can find something they like.

Let me know if there are any mistakes, I'll go and fix them. Also, if you feel that there's a song or songs that should be included in the list let me know too. Oh, and please be advise that some but not all, of these songs are a little disturbing/creepy/scary...especially when you listen to them at night and when you're all alone in the dark.

Description:In the spirit of Halloween (also known as All Hallows' Eve) you are to write a spooky tale about someone or a group of people that are trick or treating (though they don't necessarily have to be trick or treating...they could be going to a party or doing something else for Halloween) and they become the victim(s) of a trick rather than a treat - such a prank, a visit to the wrong house, or assorted things that go bump in the night and so on. And one way or another something goes wrong, terrifying wrong.

You can do anything to this, like have a bit of romance in it or humor, mystery, suspense, action or all of that in it. Even have OC(s), Reader-insert or only canon characters. As long as it's Halloween theme and is somewhat scary it is great. And just have fun with it! This goes for any category/fandom. I would love to see more Halloween theme stories...or at least some Horror stories inspired from the Halloween spirit.

If more than one artist is given, you can pick either one, since I have some songs that have the same title as another artist's song (Like how I have three songs called "One" on my iPod).

The challenge/Rules: Write stories based on the song's title and/or the melody the song provides. So in other words, NOT the lyrics.

+ No slash/yuri, please and thank you~
+ Reader POVs are nice :3
+ If you're doing Harry Potter, do not do one for Snape or Malfoy. Canonically, they're not as hot as fanon says.

Characters (I'm aware that there's a characters thing, but I don't want to be misleading)
For each fandom, there is at least one character I want to have included. you are not limited to them, but I want one (at least) for each of them.

Description: What would the Ouran-verse be like if the Host Club members' personalities actually matched the one's Renge created for them during her first appearance? Write a story taking place in her world! Describe a day in the life of Lonely Prince Tamaki or Evil Hunny, or discuss what other characters would be like in "Renge-vision", such as Kasanoda. Anything goes as long as it takes place in Renge-verse! Use your imagination and have fun with it!

Reader-insert and CYOA stories are encouraged, but stories without the reader as a character are fine too. OCs are also acceptable.

Description: :3
So I'm thinking.
For this challenge I want someone to write a set of drabbles, one shots, or ficlets, whatever you want, where you take your own characters or characters from an anime/game/tv show/ect ad incorporate them into another TV show or game or book (: Without changing the plot too much :3

Like taking Sora from kindgom hearts and making a story where he's in Death Note xD :33

Ya get it?!

:D you can do whatever characters and stuff you like.
But brownie points for Death Note, Ouran Host, Inuyasha, FMA, Kingdom Hearts, Heart No Kuni No Alice, FF, or Dragon Age Origins

Description: This was inspired by that car ad thats been on tv recently. As the title sujests it's about reasons for hugging, for example:

Safety
Reassurance
Love
Friends
Comfort
Celabration
etc...

You can write as many drabbles/one-shots as you want. Oc's or reader-inserts, doesn't matter. You can do it for whatever fandom you want, the ones I listed are simply the ones I would like to see it done for. You can use more that one fandom, there aren't really any rules, just please label each chapter you post with the reason for your hug in that chapter.

Description: This challenge involves writing twenty five drabbles, ficlets, or what have you, based on prompts of flowers and their meanings.

Rules/Guidelines:
Each prompt contain either the flower itself or must represent the flower's meaning.
Reader insert is preferred but not required.
Rating can be anything.
Please put that you're answering this challenge in the summary!

Choose a character form the categories above and write a drabble for each prompt/event.

Rules
1. No yuri please! Yoai is acceptable I guess...
2. No OC's or self-inserts. Reader-insert is allowed though.
3. Any pairing is okay!
4. You can change the order. It really doesn't matter.
5. Please put that your responding to this challenge in the summary please!

Description: I absolutely love creative ways to announce that you're expecting. Why not share the fun with our bishies? I want to see some original ideas on how to let them know that they're gunna be daddies!

It can be sweet and fluffy, random and funny, or just out-of-the-blue. I just want it to be creative and unique. Have fun with it!

Description: Using the list of color prompts below, write a story, collection, or series with no limitations on the length of each portion! No need to use the colors in any order, and if you're uncertain about a color, it's easy to look them up- all names can be found on Wikipedia. I did at least attempt to find colors that weren't too abstract.

As an extra challenge, try to include each of the colors in the chapter somehow.

20 Songs to show how one falls in love. You can decide how many words you want to use in each of them. Also only one character to fall in love with the reader/OC. And you can choose any character from KHR.

The mark numbers of the following:

-1) Beginning of everything and shows that the character feels insecure and alittle untrusting towards others.
-5) Beginning of the crush.
-10) Starting a relationship with them.
-15) Something happens to them like betrayel, lieing, or trust issues. There has to be drama in a story XD
-18) They firgured everything out and they are together again.
-20) The happy ending.

Description: Hades, the Greek god of the dead, fell in love with Persephone, the daughter of the goddess of plants and the harvest, Demeter. Knowing Demeter would never willingly allow him to marry her daughter, he waited until Persephone was alone and rose up from the Underworld in his chariot, grabbed her and carried her off to his palace. Demeter was so distraught with her beloved daughter's sudden mysterious disappearance that she neglected her duties, causing the world's plants to wither and die. After much searching, she discovered what Hades had done and begged Zeus to order her daughter's return. Zeus agreed, but only on the condition that Persephone had not eaten any food from the Underworld during her stay. Persephone had been so distraught with her sudden capture that she had refused to eat anything, but just before her release, Hades persuaded her to eat 6 pomegranate seeds from his garden. Zeus then ordered a compromise: Persephone would spend 6 months of each year in the Underworld with Hades (one for each seed), and the other 6 with her mother on Earth. So every year when Persephone went to be with Hades, her mother would again fall into depression and neglect her work, only making the plants florish again when her daughter returned. This is how the ancient Greeks explained the changing seasons.

This is one of my favorite myths, and I've always thought it would be a great basis for a fic! The rules for this challenge are fairly simple. The fic should be at least 6000 words, either in one-shot or multi-chapter format. Reader-insert is preferred, but I will accept OC's too. PLEASE AVOID USING MARY-SUES!!! The myth itself can be either used "as is" or as a backdrop or allegory to your own original story. If using the storyline of the myth, you may alter the time period or the setting for creative purposes if desired. Your story may be comedic or serious in nature (or both). Other than that, be creative and have fun with it!

Description: It's been several years since the Host Club's founding members graduated. Everyone is busy working in their family's companies (or dream career for Haruhi) and they couldn't be happier...Except for poor Kyoya. Still the third son, still nowhere near becoming heir or gaining his father's respect. Or so he thinks.

Yoshio Outori has one last test for his youngest son, one that will ultimately decide wither or not Kyoya is fit to run the family business. What that test is I will leave up to you. But during the course of events Kyoya meets a rather unique woman (OC-NOT a Mary-Sue!) who under normal circumstances he would never have met, nor chanced a second glance towards. A woman so common and yet so charming and caring. Despite his best efforts he ends up falling in love with her, and she with him.

Bonus for romance-comedies, detailed Kyoya masturbating scenes, and gratuitous lemons. PM me if you have any questions or would like some help.

[1]
There is love burning to find you
Will you wait for me?

[2]No more broken promises
Our shattered hearts will heal

[3]And I'm tired of being all alone,
and this solitary moment makes me want to come back home

[4]Everything about you
Seemed to be a lie
A guiltless twisted lie.

[5]It's a shame that it had to be this way
Maybe I'm to blame
Or maybe we're the same

[6]If I could be your angel
Protect you from the pain
I'll keep you safe from danger
You'll never hurt again

[7]I'll follow you where you're leading
To the first sweet taste of freedom

[8]I know that if we give this a little time
it will only bring us closer to the love we want to find

[9] Fallen and born here I want to love this blood-soaked world without fear
Instead of being forgiven, forgive and have faith

[10] I’d do anything for a smile
Holding you til our time is done
We both know the day will come
But I don’t want to leave you.

Description: Ok so not a lot of rules, BUT they are mandatory. Rule #1: No underage sex/rape, Rule #2: You can any person or more (example: RikuxReaderxSora or seperate like Tamaki Suohxreader), and last rule! Just make as many as your little hearts desire! BUT the bishie(s) or the reader must have something in police relations so ALWAYS follow this rule. Now...GO WRITE~!

Description: This is a quote challenge (I know, how original), but I figured I'd do my own, you know? It can be drabbles, ficlets, or one shots.

RULES:

• You don't have to do all of these quotes, you can, but the minimum is ten.
• Yaoi and yuri are excepted.
• OCs cannot be used; make it a reader insert.
• If it's reader insert, you cannot give them a certain look.
• You can use the canon characters, without anyone extra.
• And most importantly, have fun!

BONUS POINTS:

• If you write about characters who aren't as popular as the rest, and aren't always written about.
• If you make it CharacterxReaderxCharacter

The reason for the title is the fact that some of these quotes are good, some are horrible, some are funny, and some are romantic, and some are angsty; perfect for every genre out there.

Also, not all of these quotes are from movies, some are from songs. The ones from movies will only have the movie title after the quote, and the ones from songs will have the song title and the artist after the quote. The rest are from the Internet, not a movie or song, so nothing will be after them.

Description: Basically, write fanfiction on your favourite bishies yay~ It can be a oneshot, a drabble, a story, or any other thing you want to write. But it has to be inspired by a Lady Gaga song. There is no set rating so let your little hearts run wild.

Description: There are NO DEADLINES. Yay. There are basically no rules, either. YAY AGAIN! But, I would like to ask that your rate your entry in the title (ex: 13+ or something). Have fun. You can add more than one, I suppose. MUST FOLLOW ALL RULES OF A TRADITIONAL READER INSERT. This includes that the characters FULL name, eye color, hair color, height, is ALL UP TO THE READER.

This is about the reader hiding stuff from their lover... If it wasn't obvious. :D

Description: Rules:

•One shots, short stories, song-fics, drabbles
•Reader insert, self insert, OC, yaoi, yuri, canon. Doesnt matter. Heck, there doesnt even need to be pairings.

•Any fandom is acceptable,

Description: A romance story where either the reader or the love interest is of their wrong gender. (i.e. Sasuke a girl while the reader's a girl).

The only rules are: 1) The character of the correct gender (using the first example, the reader) does not know/believe they are gay/bisexual. 2) The character of the wrong gender must be openly gay. 3) When or if the correct gender character person decides to try get in a relationship with their interest the must hid it for at least 2 chapters or half of the one-shot. 4) Must use one of the named characters

Description: So lets face it we've all read a fic or two that made you cringed because of how OOC your FAVORITE character is. So why not fix this problem? The challenge is that you must write a manual about any character and show how you think people should write them. The manual has to be 1 entry long and over 1000 words it also must more than one way to write the character (ex. TYL!Hibari, Pervert!Hibari, Romanticish!Hibari, Stalker!Hibari, Nice!Hibari (how do you write that without being OOC?)) One exception for the 1 entry rule is if you do multiple characters an put them in one book If thats the case the title has to have the name of the anime or manga your doing! So please take this challenge on some of us writers won't write a story because they're scared of it being OOC so help our pour souls! PS Extra points if you do like a less popular character

Description: Anybody ever notice that it's always the female that does something sexy, whether intentional or not, and the male can't resist himself and must have her? That's all fine and dandy, but lets do something different this time! I would like someone to make a bunch of reader-insert one-shots of the reader seeing the romantic interest doing something (or not doing anything) that really gets their heart pounding and makes them want to jump him and have their way with him. In other words, lets have some female domination here. If you find this interesting and want to do it, then please read the rules below.

-Not every chapter has to be a lemon if you don't want it to be.
-I would appreciate it if the characters weren't underage. This only applies to lemon chapters.
-Keep cursing mild, please. I find that too many strong cuss words just ruins a story.
-There is to be no yaoi, yuri, or incest. No exceptions.
-The one-shots (or two-shots, if you want) can be as long as you want, but the word minimum is 200.
-All ratings are welcome, so make it as mild or hot as you like.
-Have fun!

Here are the characters-in no particular order-I would like to see be given a one-shot (or two). If there is a character that you want that I have not listed, feel free to add the character on.

Description: Idioms are silly. They can be easily misunderstood by people of different cultured and it's fun to think about the reaction when the phrase was first used. Write a situation based around one of the following idioms. I don't care if it's silly crack, romantic fluff, sad angst or whatever. This is my first challenge ever, so enjoy~♥
An idiom is a common word or phrase with a culturally understood meaning that differs from what its composite words' denotations would suggest. For example, an American-English speaker would understand the phrase "kick the bucket" to mean "to die," as well as to actually kick a bucket. Furthermore, they would understand when each meaning is being used in context. An idiom is not to be confused with other figures of speech such as a metaphor, which invokes an image by use of implicit comparisons (e.g., "the man of steel" ); a simile, which invokes an image by use of explicit comparisons (e.g., "faster than a speeding bullet"); and hyperbole, which exaggerates an image beyond truthfulness (e.g., like "missed by a mile" ). Idioms are also not to be confused with proverbs, which are simple sayings that express a truth based on common sense or practical experience.

Here's a list of Idioms... If you can come up with more, feel free to add them!

Notable Idioms In English

"A bitter pill"-A situation or information that is unpleasant but must be accepted.

"Ace in the hole"-A hidden or secret strength, or unrevealed advantage.

"Add insult to injury"-To further a loss with mockery or indignity; to worsen an unfavorable situation .

Description: It's basically a short story about quick and adorable romance flings with any characters from the following manga's: Fairy Tail, D Gray-Man, Fruits Basket, Ouran High School Host Club, One Piece, and Shugo Chara.
Rules:
1: Can only be one story
2: Story should be selected from preferred manga's
3: Can only use one couple at a time, possibly a love triangle if chosen

Deadline: July 16th, 2012
(If you are unable to send it in by then, but have started a story, there will be exceptions made. Just e-mail me regarding the challenge, and it will be an exception!)

Description: So, I was on StumbleUpon and I stumbled across this list of... interesting... dates. Being the super-dork that I am, actually think that most of these would be a lot of fun!! So, my challenge to you is that you take AT LEAST 10 of the dates on the list and write about how that date went.

PROPS if you use more than 10 of the dates.

PLEASE do not put the dates as titles. I would rather see "Date 1" "Date 2" "Date 3" etc. than have long chapter titles. Instead, bold and center the topic inside of the chapter so readers know what the prompt is.

Description: Your theme MUST be the adventures you have with your crazy boyfriend . (Cause all of these anime men are NOT normal.) So let's see all the funtastic things you and your boyfriend do on your free time, shall we?

Cussing - I'm fine with it , but no cussing every sentence or anything.
